    Been biking 25 years, always been a Honda man from SS50 to blackbirds but bought a new ZZR1400 in 2007 and kept it ever since, great bike. Use it most weekends and touring in Europe, missis flys to airports in France or Spain I pick her up, go touring then play time for me on the way back :lol:

    Re: Any Bikers on Here?!

    Wow... some pricey machinery out there.... My very much more humble ride is a 1996 Honda Blackbird (Carb version) which is by a long, long way the best bike I have ever had. I suppose I could get another bike if I really wanted to but it's just a summer toy and it's certainly fast enough for me!

    1978 Yamaha xt500. Just got the new red log book through. Says I got it in 1989 :shock: Three rebuilds and abot 95k on it. Done enduros on it including riding to a from events! It's always been my second bike alongside plenty of others but now it's the only one.

    Did the Enfield replace the harley? Always fancied a small harley or retro bike for town work!

    Would be interested in your thoughts on both.

    Gixxer 750 here but I intend to break it for spares soon. Have had all sorts over the years including a few VTR1000's, supermotos and more recently a Buell. Also had a pretty quick stock Z750 which I really rated.

    Interested in your views on MV as I have almost decided on a Triumph Street Triple R, thinking of buying in March with new plate, but see MV are bringing out a Brutale 675 triple in March?

    How is reliability and dealer facilities?

    The Ducati box has a fairing panel in it for a '97 vintage 900SS. I've been meaning to put it on ebay since about 2000.............

    I'd have to say the MV is the best bike I have ever had and the build quality is excellent. I've had no issues with reliabilty though I will admit I dont rack up massive miles. Cant comment on dealers as so far I have not needed to get it serviced. However Forza Italia at Silverstone are meant to be very good and on the flip side the guy I bought the bike off said to avoid Red Dog motorcycles.

    The Street Triple R is an excellent bike but if it was my money I would go for the Brutale 675. Funnily enough I nearly got a standard Street Triple instead of the MV but in the end was seduced by the exclusivity and badge. I know I'm a tart but what can you do.

    Nice selection of bikes by the way. I had a Ducati 900 Superlight years ago and loved it.

    Some nice bikes in this post :)

    Started myself in the late 1970’s and apart from a few years in the 1990’s have always had a bike in the garage – started with GT and RD 250’s, then most of the big GSX and GPz’s of the 1980’s and in the last 10 years on a few sports 600’s and blades.

    This is my SP2 currently up for sale as I have finally decided to stick to just track days – 6 or so in the summer just about feeds my two wheeled addiction.



    This my CBR600 track bike, a 2002 bike so getting on a bit, but with modern rubber, ohlins shock, power commander and a few bits and bobs is just fine for the track
